Xu Yingxu and Xu Miaoqing, brother and sister, looked at him with incredible eyes at the same time.

"Ah, this king has said it's time to eat."

Zhu Gui left the room in a hurry under the gaze of the two.

Xu Miaoqing shook her head with a smile, then her face changed instantly, she looked at Xu Miaoqing and said, "Have you really decided?" Actually, I have the same worries as the acting king. ”

Xu Miaoqing glanced at Xu Yingxu and said, "Who do you think of me Xu Miaoqing?" Maybe when I married Zhu Gui, I did have some resentment and did some stupid things, but that was all in the past, I have recognized him now, and I am now a princess. ”

Xu Yingxu nodded and said: "It seems that you have grown up, little sister, and I can also explain this matter to my parents, in fact, I was originally arranged to come to Yunzhou to repair the palace is my father's intention, and he is worried that you will be wronged." ”

"I didn't expect God's will to make people, but now I have become the garrison general here."

Xu Yingxu smiled helplessly.

"However, as an elder brother, I want to remind you, just because you are the princess, even if the acting king agrees to you to go to the Yan Wangfu for help, you can't go out as an official teacher, can you understand what I mean?"

Xu Miaoqing said impatiently: "I know, you see that I am dressed now, except for you and that stupid melon, isn't no one able to recognize me?" I'll be careful, just put a hundred hearts on you. ”

With that, she turned around and was about to leave.

"By the way, when are you and the king going to have a child, I'm still going to hold my nephew." Xu Yingxu said.

When Xu Miaoqing heard this, her face instantly turned red, and her steps were a little faster, but when she walked to the door, she still stopped and said, "You can find me a sister-in-law first." ”

……

After Zhu Gui had a simple meal, he began to analyze the various information brought by Hu Shidao, the Chamber of Commerce and the Black Wolf Gang during this time.

Asking for help from King Yan was really a last resort, and he could imagine that with the current strength of King Yan's Mansion, it was likely to dominate this war and divide most of his credit.

But compared to his position and safety as a vassal king, some credit naturally cannot be compared.

"On which side are the Mongols most likely to attack?"

Zhu Gui marked the location of the Mongol tribes on the map, among which the Golden Horde of the Heavenly Khan was the most conspicuous.

According to intelligence, although the initiator of this battle was Hei Muhan, the leader was this Heavenly Khan.

"Why don't there be fierce people like Huo Qubing under this king?"

Zhu Gui counted the available power in his hands, except for his eldest brother Xu Yingxu, there were basically only a few personal soldiers who could be used.

And it's just usable, and it's not enough to be on its own.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

"That's right, Maxima often exists but Bole doesn't often have, this king can't always expect Maxima to appear on his own, this king has to create opportunities for him."

As for how to create opportunities, Zhu Gui obviously already had an idea.

So he found Xu Yingxu, who was just about to return to Blackwood City, and proposed to him the idea of holding an all-army martial arts competition.

"Lord Wang, the martial arts competition? At a time like this? ”

Xu Yingxu looked at Zhu Gui with a surprised expression.

"That's right, the army selects excellent warriors, and at the same time, you can also find materials that can be made in the people, and more importantly, of course, it can stimulate morale, General Xu can rest assured, this time all the costs will be borne by the acting king's mansion."

Zhu Gui patted his chest and made a guarantee.

"It's not a matter of cost, but since the acting king has decided, the end will cooperate, but I don't know when it will be held?"

Xu Yingxu thought about it for a while, but still agreed.

"Three days later, it will be held at the same time in Blackwood City and Datong Mansion."

Zhu Gui said confidently.

"Isn't the prince worried about the Mongol attack?"

Xu Yingxu asked.

"I'm afraid that if they don't come, this king will prepare twenty Hongyi cannons in Blackwood City at that time, if you can use one Blackwood City to consume the living strength of the Mongols, it will be worth it."

Zhu Gui said.

Xu Yingxu was also shocked when he heard the 'Twenty Hongyi Cannons'.

Does this acting king have some power that he doesn't know? You must know that even the Ministry of War can't take out so many cannons at one time, and as for the power, it can't be compared with the Hongyi cannon in the hands of the acting king.

"Okay, then I'll go back and prepare, and the sister and princess will ask the king."

Xu Yingxu arched his hand and said.

Zhu Gui nodded.

As soon as Xu Yingxu was sent away, Xu Miaoqing, who was dressed in military uniform, took Zhu Gui's two personal soldiers and led the horse behind him.

"My brother is gone? Do you have another idea? ”

Xu Miaoqing watched Xu Yingxu's figure disappear into the distance and asked.

"All-Army Martial Arts Competition."

Zhu Gui said.

"Interesting, I also want to participate, but I still have to go to Yanwangfu, when will it be held, I will come back as soon as possible, can I catch up?"

Xu Miaoqing's eyes lit up when she heard this.

Zhu Gui rolled his eyes, he didn't dare to imagine the scene of Xu Miaoqing dancing with those rough old men and playing with knives and sticks.

"It's going to be held in three days, you should hurry up, by the way, bring these with you, and pay attention to protect yourself."

Zhu Gui tied a large package of bullets to Xu Miaoqing's horse.

"Are you worried about me? Okay, I got it. ”

Xu Miaoqing got on the horse with a smile and walked through the city gate step by step.

Zhu Gui nodded to the two pro-soldiers, and the expressions of the two pro-soldiers suddenly became extremely serious.

Seeing Yiren disappear into the distance, Zhu Gui finally let out a sigh of relief, as if he had lost something.

After handing over the affairs of Hujian City to two thousand households, he rode back to Datong Mansion.

As soon as he returned to the palace of the acting king, Zhu Gui found the housekeeper and asked him to issue a notice to inform him of the news that a statewide martial arts competition would be held.

It is the same as the military competition, but the scale of the civil competition is larger, and those with good results can have the opportunity to join the garrison of the guard and the palace on behalf of the king.

Of course, the advantage of this selection method is that once these people are willing to join the army, they do not need to start as a small soldier, but can directly have a military position.

As for joining the Acting Prince's Mansion, it is as a guard and a guest, and you can also join the Prince's Escort in the future.

Originally, in the shadow of the war, the air was revealing the atmosphere of the sheriff, but because of this notice from the Acting Prince's Mansion, it immediately boiled.

The streets were talking about it, and many people felt that this was their chance to make their mark.

For this situation, Zhu Gui is naturally happy to see it.

It's just that at this time, Sun Shangqing, the disaster relief emperor who made him very unhappy, came to the door again.

"It seems that the reminder I gave him last time was not enough."

Zhu Gui said with compassion in his heart, but he still went to the side hall to see this imperial historian.
